The fluorinated benzotriazoles according to the in~ention
may be obtained by reacting the corre~ponding o-phenyl-
enediamine~ with a nitrosating agent (a.g. sodiuM
nitrite).

The conden~ation of the o-phenylenediamine~ with a
nitrosating agent is preferably ef~ected in solution. All
solvents which are in~rt und~r the rea~tion conditions
are, in pri~ciple, euitable a~ ~olvent or di~peraant or
diluent. Mixtures of solvents may al~o be u~ed. Solvents
which may be mention~d by way of example are: water,
alcohols, ketone~, organic acid~, such a~ fo~mic acid,
acetic acid and propionic acid, DMF, toluenq, chloro-
benzene, d~chloromethane, trichloroethyle~e, and the
like.

Water in combination with an organic acid, for example,
ia advantag~ous ~incQ the reaction i~ carried out in th~
acid p~ range.

However, th~ choice of the ~ol~ent/diluent aleo depend~




Le A 29 290 - 5 -

~114302

on the nature of the n~tro~ating agent. For example, if
an alkali metal nitrite, such as sodium nitrite, 18 used,
then this will be readily soluble in water, indicating
this mode of implementation to be advantageou~. In a
similar manner, the method can also be carried out in
other solvents u~ing other nitroaating agents, such as
methyl nitrite or i~o-amyl nitrite.

Further nitrosating agents are nitrogen oxide~, nitrosyl-
sulphuric acid or nitrosyl chloride.
.
The addition of the nitrosating agent is preferably
effected at a low temperature, that i8 at 0 to 10C, but
can also be carried out at temperature~ below or above
this. It i8 likewi~e possible to complete the reaction at
an elevated temperature. For this purpose, a te~perature
range from 40 to 100C proved to be advantageous.
' ' ~---:
In order to obtain a product which i~ as pure as
poa~ible, the nitrosating agent i~ employed in molar
eguivalent~ or ~n a slight excess. In this way, complete
reaction is achieved and sepaxation of ~tarting material
and product i8 di~pensed wlth. A larger exoese of nitros-
ating agent does not interfere with the reaction and can
be readily separated off, owing to the great difference
in solubility.

It favours the working u~ of the sample if a reaction
medium is collected in which the product is poorly
soluble 20 that it can be ~eparated off, for example by

The o-phenylenediamine~ which are ~uitable for use a~
starting material~ can be prepared in a variety of ways,
independently of the nature of the R1 and R~ radicals:

If o-phenylenediamines are to be prepared in which both ~-
R~ and R2 represent donor group~ in the 4 and 5 positions,
e.g. compound~ in which R1 represent~ polyfluoroalkoxy or
polyfluoroalkylthio and Rl and/or R2 represents fluorine,
chlorine, bromine, alkyl, alkoxy or bisfluoroalkylamino,
a benzene derivative of the formula

can then be dinitrated and the nitro groups sub~equently
reduced. The dlnitration can be carried out, for example,
using HN03/H,SO~ mixtures, which can optionally also
contain oleum, at temperatures from, for example, 0 to
100C. The reduction can be carried out, for exa~ple,
using iron in the presence of aqueous hydrochloric acid
and ethanol at te~peratures from, for example, 50 to
100C, or catalytically using elemental ~ydrogen, e.g. 1
to 100 bar, and in the pres2nce of cataly~ts containing
metal~ or compounds of metal~ from the 8th subgroup of
the per~odic systam, in particular nickel or palladiu~,
at, for example, 25 to 100C.

into the meta position to the nitro group, and the nitro

ating agents. Suitable solvents are, for example, water,
dilute mineral acids, acetic acid, chloroalkane~ and

Examples

Preparation of starting material~ (o-phenylenediamines)
for the novel benzotriazoles

a) 320 g of 1,2-bis-(2-chloro-1,1,2-trifluoroethoxy)-
benzene were added dropwi~e to 500 g of a mixed acid
containing 33~ by weight of XN03 and 67% by weight
of H2SO~. After one hour at 40C, 250 ml of 20%
strength by weight oleum were added dropwise.
Sub~equently, the mixture was heated to 80C and
then stirred for 15 hour~. A further 120 ml of 20%
strength by weight oleu~ and 250 g of the above-
mentioned mixed acid were then added dropwise. After
6 hours at 80 to 82C, the mixture wa~ cooled down
and poured onto ice. The organic phase wa~ separated
off and wa~hed with water. Following azeotropic
drying with 1,2-dichloroethane, 350 g of 1,2-di-
nitro-4,5-bis-(2-chloro-1,1,2-trifluoroethoxy)-
benzene were obtained, which waa 98% pure by weight
(oil, n20: 1.4832, GC 99.1%).

350 g of this dinitro co~pound were added dropwise
to a mixture consisting of 1.5 1 of ethanol, 50 ml
of water, 30 ml of concentrated aqueous hydrochloric
acid and 470 g o~ iron filings, and thi~ new mixture
then heated to boiling at reflux for a total of
15 hour~. Subsequently, the aooled solution was fil-
tered and concentrated, and the residue was recry~-
tallized from cyclohexane. 216 g of 1,2-diamino-4,5-

21 14302

bis-(2-chloro-1,1,2-trifluoroethoxy)-benze~e were
obtained with a melting point of 58 to 60C.

b) 24 g of finely powdered 2-nitro-4-~rifluoromethyl-
mercapto-aniline were di~olved in 50 ml of tri-
S fluoroacetic acid, and 18 g of brom~ne were meterad
in at 20C. ~he mixture was the~ stirred at 20C for
3 hour~ and ~ub~equently at 40C for a further
30 minutes, after which it wa~ poured onto water and
the product wa~ taken up in dichloromethane. 31 g of
6-bromo-2-nitro-4-trifluoromothylmercapto-aniline
resulted after remo~ing the ~olvent.

155 g of the nitroaniline prepared in thi~ way were
heated to boiling at reflux for 15 hours in 700 ml
of etha~ol together with 15 ml of water, 10 ml of
concentrated aqueous hydrochloric acid and 70 g of
iron fil~ngs, and the mixture wa~ then ~iltered; the
filtrate wa~ freed o~ ~olvent under reduced pre~ure
and the solid crude product wa~ recry~tallized from
cyclohexane. 112 g of 6-bromo-4-trifluoromethyl-
mercapto-1,2-diamino-benzene were obtained with a
melting point of 60 ~o 61C.

The remaining o-phenylenediamines which are reguired
for preparing the benzotriazole~ according to the
invention may be prepared in an a~alogoua man~er.

10 g of diamine of the formula

were added to a mixture consisting of 75 ml of water and
6 ml of glacial acetic acid and the whole mixture waa
then stirred for 30 minute~. After cooling the mixture
down to 0C, 8 g of sodium nitrite, dissolved in 25 ml of
water, were rapidly added dropwise. Subsequently, the
mixture was ~tirred at 0 to 5C for 1 hour and then at
80C for 3 hours. After cool~ng down to room temperature,
the solid material was filtered off with suction and then
washed with a little water. After drying, 9.6 g of the
desired product were obtained with a melting point of 203
to 204C.

A~lication

Venturia test (apple)/protective

Solvent: 12.5 parts by weight of acetone
Emul~ifier: 0.3 part by weight of alkylaryl poly-
glycol ether

To produce a suitable preparation of active compound,
1 part by weight of active compound i~ mixed with the
stated amounts of solvent and emulsifier, and the concen- -
trate i~ diluted with water to the desired concentration.

To te~t for protective activity, young plant~ are ~prayed
with the preparation of active compound until dripping
wet. A~ter the spray coating ha~ dried on, the planta are
inoculated with an aqueou~ conidia ~uspension of the
apple scab cau~ative organism (Venturia inaequalis) and
~hen remain in an incubation cabin at 20C and 100%
relative atmospheric humidity for 1 day.

Th~ plants are then placed in a greehhouse at 20C and a
relati~e atmospheric humid~ty of about 70%.

Evaluation i8 carried out 12 days after the inoculation.

In this test, a clearly superior activity compared with
th~ prior art i~ ~hown, ~or example, by the compounds
according to the following preparation example~
